Heating, Ventilation and Air conditioning
158•
Another fault in the vehicle. Have the air conditioner checked by a quali-
fied workshop.
WARNING
Please note that when the Climatronic is switched off, no fresh air will enter
the vehicle interior. For this reason you should ensure that sufficient fresh
air is able to enter the vehicle by opening a window or the sliding/tilting
sunroof
40) when the Climatronic is switched off.
Caution
•
If you suspect that the air conditioner is damaged, switch off the air condi-
tioner with button to prevent further damage and have it checked by a
qualified workshop.
•
Repairs to the air conditioning system require specialist knowledge and
special tools. Therefore, we recommend that you take the vehicle to a quali-
fied workshop should problems occur.Note
•
If the humidity and temperature outside the vehicle are high, condensa-
tion can drip off the evaporator in the cooling system and form a pool under-
neath the vehicle, this is completely normal and there is no need to suspect
a leak.
•
Keep the air intake slots in front of the windscreen free of snow, ice and
leaves to ensure heating and cooling is not impaired, and to prevent the
windows misting over.
•
The air conditioning system operates most effectively with the windows
and the sliding /tilting roof
40) closed. However, if the sun has heated up the
vehicle, the air inside can be cooled more quickly by opening the windows for
a short period.
•
Do not smoke while air recirculation mode is on, as smoke drawn into the
cooling system leaves a residue on the evaporator, producing a permanent
unpleasant odour.
